Help! I Started Going To A Chiropractor And Now I Can’t Stop!
The Summit Family Chiropractic Guide To Stopping Chiropractic Care
One of the biggest chiropractic myths is that once you start going, you have to go for the rest of your life. Of course, this is totally not true. If is was true, our practice would have been full a long time ago!
The choice to leave or stay is always your choice.
In fact, it’s more common for us to see patients come and go over the years instead of continuing care to maintain their spinal health. It’s only a small percentage of patients that choose to stay under care. And they stay because regular chiropractic care helps them stay healthy and active, not because they have to.
Here’s some tips to help you say goodbye, so you wont feel awkward when you run into us as the grocery store or REI.
- Share Your Feelings – Tell us how you’re doing, and let us know if you have questions or concerns about your care. Don’t keep this stuff to yourself. Good communication from the beginning leads to a healthy ending if you choose to stop care.
- Let Us Know When You’re Done – Say something like “thanks for the help, Doc. I think today is going to be my last visit”. Don’t worry, we wont guilt you into keeping with it. And even though we might be a little sad to see you go (we’re only human), we love to celebrate with our “graduating” patients.
- Settle Your Account – An unpaid bill can taint even the most solid relationship. If for some reason you end up having trouble paying, then please let us know. We’ll do our best to work with you!
- Don’t Steal Our ZooBorns Book When You Go – We know how hard it is to resist the Cutest Exotic Baby Animals, but that’s no excuse for stealing. If you take our ZooBorns, be prepared for total awkwardness if we run into you at Fred Meyers or Central Market.
Our goal is always to serve our patients needs and provide excellent care. Happy patients make us happy about our work. Please feel free to start and stop care any time you wish. It’s your health, and you have to decide what’s best for you. We’ll do our best to support whatever chiropractic path you choose!
